@nightpool@cybre.space i'm not sure i buy this. communication with other humans isn't the only goal or the only benefit; higher-level programming languages allow us the coders to make logical shortcuts that allow us to more easily develop complex algorithms. i would never have the patience to do game development in raw assembly

while i agree it's important we write code so that others can easily read it, i wouldn't go so far as to say that communication with other humans is the *primary* function
